Great question Esmeralda! =) There are lots of pros to being in a STEM Career: lots of job openings, higher pay, a fun and ever-changing environment (you never get bored) and you might even be able to wear jeans to work! I definitely recommend it! Only con could be the constant change if you happen to be a person that likes things to stay the same. If not - it's an amazing career!

Pros: there are more and more opportunities in stem related fields and as technology advances this will only grow. so for that reason it is a good career choice
: The field is ever changing and you will always be learning so a good choice for those who like to be challenged and like to be at the forefront of things
Cons: If you are a woman you will be in the minority. Most STEM positions are filled by men. This could be a pro or a con depending on how you feel about that.
: STEM fields don't always attract people with the best people skills, they will be more numbers, math, science focused so communication can be challenging.
